Genomic and Transcriptomic Insights Into Salinity Tolerance in Dry Pea

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Salinity is a major crop production constraint in dry pea (Pisum sativum L.), making the development of salt‐tolerant varieties essential to improve crop productivity and land‐use efficiency. The genetic mechanisms of salt tolerance in dry pea are largely unknown, and research on salt‐tolerant genes is limited.

Toward Efficient Cellulosic Biomass Breakdown: Enzymatic Innovation and Kinetic Insights

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 6, June 2026.
By combining a processive GH7, CBM2a, and GH3 into single enzyme, the GCG fusion protein effectively breaks down crystalline cellulose. This tri‐domain architecture reduces cellobiose inhibition at the cellulose surface allowing for the simultaneous targeting of the substrate, depolymerization, and removal of products.
